“Thud.”
Only when he heard the sound of Shin Yeon’s door closing did Do Jun turn around.
“Do Jun Seo. Did Manager Shin usually bother you?”
Behind him, Jun Oh, who had finished organizing the documents, asked in a puzzled voice.
“What?”
“Just because your joke was a bit cruel.”
Uncharacteristically.
At that, Do Jun let out a chuckle and headed for the water cooler.
“Not particularly.”
As he said this in a roundabout way, his hand reached out for a cup.
“Why are you speaking so harshly… And why is your hand like this?”
In the midst of his nagging, Jun Oh spotted a slight smudge of blood on Do Jun’s hand as he was picking up the cup.
“Did you hurt yourself? Maybe earlier…”
“I just scratched it doing something. Don’t worry about it.”
Do Jun curtly replied, cutting off Jun Oh’s drawnout words.
Jun Oh tilted his head again at his response.
Do Jun Seo isn’t the type to get injured by accident.
“You seem to be in a mess… Anyway, some reports have been raised here and there. Not everyone seems to think kindly of it, there will be more eyes watching you.”
“It’s already happened. There’s nothing I can do.”
Jun Oh looked suspiciously at Do Jun, who responded.
The expression on his face as he poured water over the cup had been suspicious since a while ago.
“Do Jun Seo. Am I wrong, or does this situation seem exciting to you?”
“Who knows.”
Jun Oh had by then approached him and patted him on the shoulder.
“You poor thing, it must have been tough living as a new employee.”
You must have been very upset.
Manager Shin must have been stricter than she seemed when working.
“Hang in there, man.”
Do Jun had to laugh at Jun Oh, who was looking at him with a pitying gaze.
((()))
“Ahh… I’m tired.”
The morning I woke up.
The first fact that confirmed that yesterday was not a dream was the hangover.
The aftermath of the binge was enormous.
Shin Yeon dragged her tired body to open the door to her house to go to work.
Then.
“You’re up early.”
What?
“Good morning, Lee Hyun…no, Do Jun Seo. Good morning. I’ll be going then.”
Seeing Do Jun, Shin Yeon instinctively closed the door quickly.
Thud.
“What do you mean you’ll be going then.”
He blocked the closing door with his foot.
Just yesterday morning, he was the fresh, splendid, new employee who was the embodiment of the company’s welfare.
Now, he’s the crazy chairman’s son who sticks his foot in an employee’s door.
Ah, life, really.
“Oh, I left my bag. You go ahead.”
“What’s that in your hand?”
“Ah? This……is, well.”
Shin Yeon’s bag swung in her hand, ostentatiously.
The newbie. Suddenly, why so oblivious?
Please go alone.
“Well… I usually carry two bags, didn’t you know?”
“Take it with you. I’ll wait.”
“Don’t you ride your bike?”
“I left it at the office yesterday because I had to go straight to the company dinner.”
“Ah……”
“Why. Is it inconvenient?”
It would be illogical if it weren’t inconvenient.
This is too much. Just yesterday…
You and your boss breathing in the same three meters would be uncomfortable, so go ahead and, huh?
So unjust that I can’t speak.
Why do you do this to me, really?
“No way. Inconvenient, huh. Just a moment.”
Shin Yeon turned her head, her expression crumpled.
Eventually, Shin Yeon was able to get on the road to work only after going in and picking up another bag.
What’s the point of having two bags at the office…
“Nice. Neighbors commuting together.”
“Good. So good.”
So good I want to die, really.
“Let’s get along in this cooperative setting.”
As if he was determined to torment Shin Yeon, Do Joon gave a mischievous smile.
((()))
When they entered the office, Min, who had come first, greeted them warmly.
“Hello, Manager. Huh? You’re with the newbie?”
“Yeah, hello. Min…”
“Why do you have two bags? What did you bring?”
“Ah that…… I just carry two these days.”
“Huh?”
“Just understand that. Don’t ask too much.”
She couldn’t even say hello to her welcoming greeting.
Surely I don’t have to commute like this every day.
He couldn’t help but laugh all the way to work, watching her lugging two bags.
He didn’t even try to hide that snickering laughter.
For some reason, Shin Yeon started to find Do Joon, who seemed to enjoy her discomfort, irritating.
“But you two, didn’t you come together yesterday too?”
Kim Jae Hee, who had perked his ears at Min’s question, had also approached them by now.
Do Joon smiled brightly at them and opened his mouth.
“I moved to the company’s officetel, and the Manager turned out to be in the same building.”
Wow, how can his voice change like that?
It’s disgusting, really.
The one explaining was, again, the kind and sweet newbie of the afternoon.
Shin Yeon found the lazy voice she heard every day suddenly unfamiliar over the course of a night.
“I almost misunderstood.”
His words prompted Kim Jae Hee to emit a nasally filled voice.
“Yesterday, you were fretting about getting your hair wet. I almost misunderstood you. Right, our newbie wouldn’t have such low standards.”
That was Jae Hee’s direct attack on Shin Yeon.
Male lead is a Love-Obsessed Merman
When he discovers she has gone, he risks everything to pursue her on land, enduring agonizing pain to transform his tail into human legs…
One-line summary: Male lead chases female lead. The male lead’s love is a bit sick, an invincible love brain.
Synopsis
During a voyage at sea, Jiang Yang accidentally captures a merman.
Servant: I heard that mermen are fierce and brutal.
Jiang Yang looks at the merman obediently rubbing her palm like a puppy: “You call this fierce and brutal?”
Servant: I heard that mermen have no human nature.
Jiang Yang looks at the merman with wet puppy eyes, obsessively calling her ‘A Yang’ like a childish infant: “You call this having no human nature?”
With great difficulty, she releases the merman back into the sea and returns to shore.
Who would have thought that in less than half a month, the merman, who should have been freely wandering in the South China Sea, would shed his scales, endure the pain of losing his tail, transform into human legs, and come ashore to find her?
He kneels at her feet, rubbing her palm, with merman tears rolling down: “A Yang, don’t abandon me.”
